                              moved to russia in may of 2000 to find cheaper programmers and marketers. when they asked me to fire the marketing department I quit. I knew theyweren't doing the right thing.

                              Tim, Bryan, Ty and I had revenue crusing at 350k a month up from 200k 8 months earlier.

                              I heard 6 months after I quit their revenue was at 80k. Still enough to live on... especially in Russia.

                              The domains stopped resolving over a year ago. I noticed one guy hijacked the main one for a while, and was making a whopping 14$ a month off of it....through amateur pages.

                              A year after I left, the bank came after me for 14k that one of the banks had guaranteed for one of the owners....and the owner never verified something. I was young and stupid and didn't realize that I was still a signer on the account. I guess I could have cleaned out their accounts. Anyway the bank quickly realized that they shouldn't chase a college student that hadn't been with that company for over a year ...for somebody elses debt and dropped it.

                              Last I heard the two owners moved back to Washington, are completely out of porn, and are selling pure bred dogs in eastern washington/farm country.

                                    Seriously that's how I got into adult. There was a 2 inch article talking about a new type of phone service called a 976 number. They mentioned High Society Magazine had one of these numbers and you could call, get charged .50 cents a minute and listen to some new thing called phone sex. It said hundreds of thousands of guys were calling these numbers every day.

                                    The next day I was on the phone with PacBell placing my order to setup 976 lines.

                                      A good friend of mine started getting lots of hits to his homepage, where he of course had some porn pictures...

                                      After getting kicked of his free host, he needed money to buy some hosting. So he turned to me for help, this was sometime in 97/98.
                                      I didn't know shit about html or anything, and was still going to school.
                                      But the summer of 98(or 99) we tried spamming some search engines, and things started to take off

                                      Still doing pretty good with them

                                        The combo of wanting to get out of my shitass retail job in a skateboard store when I was at uni, and a friend who owned a cafe over the road who kept telling me all about the money he was making with adult. In retrospect starting in adult was one of the best decisions I've ever made and I never ever regret it.

                                        Cheers DirtyDan!

                                              I was working for a PI in Manhattan in 97 and he had a video tape of Perry Ferrell getting a blowjob whilst shooting heroin, he knew I knew about the internet, so we decided to start a site and try to sell the tape. The instant it went online at the beginning of 98 Perry sued my ass for 90 million dollars, since it was my name on the site. It wasn't fun, but that got me started on the adult stuff, since I had tons of traffic from the press we got so I learned about affilliate progams and what not

                                              and huge thanks to Dokk for aiming me in the right direction way back then

                                                  after quitting a shitty job working midnights in a factory in 98 i was unemployed and spent a lot of time surfing the net on my parents computer. i got bored with surfing so i decided to make sites, i made a music site full of real audio files for fun. then i got a spam from one of the free hosts i was using saying he was making so much money off adultcheck. i got to thinking and decided to make a porn site of my own. within 6 months i was making 10k a month. i can't say i still make that much but i make enough to live off.
                                                  you don't know you're wearing a leash if you sit by the peg all day..

                                                        a friend taught me;needed money and was always on the computer

                                                        Often times I wonder why
                                                        There's love and hate, theres live or die.
                                                        When sickness comes I must decide:
                                                        When feelings go, theres suicide.
